Leaving 'Search binaries' on so application/octet-stream will always be searched, good or bad idea?

[term srv]

I've noticed occasionally I will search for something and it will tell me not found even though I know it's there somewhere. I do have decode compressed content checked usually, but until recently didn't have binaries checked. I managed to boil it down to a test case today, where I'm searching for the word authorized but it was not found until I enabled 'Search binaries'. Is it typical for servers to send data application/octet-stream, and is there any disadvantage to searching binary data other than it probably takes much longer? Thanks

I don't see a way to edit my post. The first part of my question is more specifically is it typical for servers to send some regular json/xml etc as octet stream,

application/octet-stream is not terribly common for textual content, and yes, performance is the only downside of searching it.
